Canβt watch returns anymore. Need to breathe deeply for an hour and not to eat leftover Halloween candy. Trying to reconcile how half of this country can support a sexist/racist piece of trash. Summoning all of Phillyβs electoral power. No matter what, la lucha sigue.

"We all find ourselves saying 'THEM' and 'US', every time I hear that I feel like I'm getting kicked out and pushed aside...how do we all change the language we are using on a daily basis?" #NIIC2018 Talking welcoming communities and workplace support @NewAmericanEcon panel

Powerful words by @HelenGymAtLarge "We need visibility and voice...we need to center racial justice...our politics will only be as strong as our movement, go out and make some change!" #niic2018
Incredible to feel the incredible energy of 1000+ champions for immigrant rights at #NIIC2018! Looking forward to #WakingDream screening at 6:30pm tonight in salon B and panel convo about Dreamer narratives. @iNationProject#weareDACA
@iNationProject @leftcoastpa @1dilpickle @TFABayArea @BlueshiftEdu@rr_roberson @KQEDedspace Thanks everyone for the great conversation--looking forward to more! #WakingDreamED Fyi if you haven't seen yet, Ep4 is live! https://t.co/kvvuZbQjwn
@beststorynever@iNationProject @StorycastDocs @PBSDS We sent out a casting call, and got 100 responses of people that wanted to tell their stories-we eventually whittled it down to 6! I think only a small percentage of the undocu community wants to share their stories publicly--due to safety reasons, and many others. #WakingDreamED
@iNationProject@sacstate We are seeing a lot of interest from educators and Dreamer Resource Centers to screen the series and use it as a platform to engage in deep conversations around immigration issues. #WakingDreamED
@iNationProject Yes! As #WakingDream is rolling out on YouTube (Check it here! https://t.co/dqLDcNZvvX) and we are also doing screenings--I just showed Ep1-4 to a Dreamers Conference @sacstate#KDAconference and the response was overwhelmingly positive-a lot of thank you's:) #wakingdreamED
@1dilpickle @iNationProject A2: It's an incredibly personal choice of whether to 'come out' publicly, or not, but at the least, my hope is that by telling stories of a diverse group of Dreamers, the larger undocu community will be able to see themselves in the series, and feel more connected #WakingDreamED.
@leftcoastpa @iNationProject A2: The last 2 years have been an emotional rollercoaster for anyone allied with or part of undocumented communities in the U.S. Personally, it's been very intense to tell these stories, but more than anything, I feel blessed to have had the opportunity. #WakingDreamED
